After the discussion, there will be a screening of the documentary 'Before Hollywood: Philadelphia and the Birth of the Movies'

People pose for a photograph with the Rocky Statue near the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

The Rocky Statue and the "Rocky Steps" are two of the most popular attractions in Philadelphia. Throughout the year, people pose for photos with the bronze statue, then race up the stairs, raising their arms in victory at the top.

On Tuesday, Aug. 7, hear the behind-the-scenes story of how the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art got to be so famous.

The public is invited to the "Rocky Steps" for a discussion with Steadicam inventor Garrett Brown – the iconic shot of Rocky Balboa running up the museum steps was made possible only by this camera stabilizing system – and Rocky Statue sculptor A. Thomas Schomberg.
